I got bored

So I made an oil cooler duct, don't judge my welds! Need to finish welding around the pipes. Then glass bead, and paint. Then I will work on the mounting bracket and run the duct hoses.

Sorry, where's it getting air?

Looks like he's planing on running the Pegasus ducting hoses from somewhere else.

It'll pull air from the lip, I think. Or I am going to install NACA ducts in the bumper. I order the duct hose from Pegasus. So I'll have to play around with ducting ideas

probably something you should of thought of first?

Didn't Hustler try having his oil cooler there and it not work very well?

Well of course I thought of it, but I'm still undecided on the lip. It's not that complicated to run hoses for the duct. They could be mounted on the splitter I am making as well. I would rather mount the cooler first and run hoses, than mount a cooler for ease of hose duct orientation. Air can be pulled from a lot of places, high pressure areas, in line fans etc. And I don't know if he did or not, there is absolutely no reason why it wouldn't work well. I will post before and after temps.
